Now He's a Proponent of the UN?

Or is it just China and (especially) Russia?

I thought he didn't like the UN.

1. He likes people who like him and agree with him

Since that could change at a moments notice it's hard to keep up with who he likes.

2. He wanted to make UN countries pay for our military

I remember that. Paris agreement. There was some other stuff, too.

3. Apparently the only useful metric is "financial impact".

4. Well, supposedly, it's a metric he understands

Although I have grave doubts about his business savvy and claimed net worth.

Plus, you know that he heard about the sanctions in the broadest possible terms in the shortest amount of time. His advisor probably told him something like, "We voted for sanctions on NK. It will impact them financially. This is a good thing Mr. tRump. You can be happy about it."

5. He is way overleaveraged

Trump has an obvious tell that became obvious in the debate. He would rail against the issue that he was most sensitive about and ignore everything else. “My hands are not little” and so on. During one of the debates Secretary Clinton unleashed a list of crushing allegations against Trump including “he doesn’t have the temperament” and “he isn’t Presidential”. When the time for response came he ignored all of those and blurted out “I am not overleveraged” responding to her charge that among the half dozen concerns was that he was “overleveraged”.

He was overleveraged many times and went bankrupt. In real estate it is the easiest thing to over value your assets and get more loans until you can’t possibly repay them and then negotiate 50% on the dollar.

He has huge loans with overseas banks. His brand is losing value as people will stay away from properties with his name.

He has painted himself into the smallest of corners. When he resigns and gets the pardon from Pence he will find that only works for federal crimes and will face a phalanx of state and local prosecutors and a small army of attorneys with civil lawsuits to pick him apart.
